Ping Pong Life

Chapter 493 Force meets the wheel, Wang Chao seeks men's doubles

Wuli was directly named by Cai Guodong to join Huaping without examination, and directly entered the national first team, avoiding the relegation assessment from the second team to the first team. It can be said that he is full of honors. A talented player, he has been unanimously recognized by all the coaches of the Huaping coaching staff by virtue of his performance in the Table Tennis Super League in the past year.

But the date of his entry into the team this year has actually been postponed.

Originally, he was supposed to come here with Wang Chao and Tang Yuanyuan, but because of some things, he chose to ask for leave, and he didn't finish his work until now.

When Wang Chao received force at the station, he keenly noticed that his mood was a little depressed.

In fact, Wu Li is an extremely introverted personality. He usually has a flat attitude no matter whether he wins or loses in the game or encounters anything in life. His appearance at this time is very normal in the eyes of others, and only Wang Chao is like this. Only people who have been with him for a long time and have super sensitive perception can find this little difference in him.

"Are you okay?" Wang Chao asked him.

Wu Li shook his head, thought for a while, and said, "He's gone."

Wang Chao was startled, and then he realized that he looked at Wu Li carefully, only to notice that Wu Li's eye sockets were actually reddish, but the place where the two of them were was dimly lit, and Wu Li lowered his head slightly, so he didn't Noticed immediately.

Wang Chao patted Wu Li's shoulder and said softly, "My condolences."

Wu Li himself smiled instead: "It's okay, you know that, it's a kind of relief for me."

Having said that, Wang Chao caught the gloomy look that flashed across his face.

The story of force is actually not complicated.

As early as a year ago, when Wang Chao "abducted" Wu Li into Spade Q, Wu Li actually told him briefly about his family situation. At that time, he wanted to play in professional leagues and was eager to make money. Because something went wrong at home.

To put it simply, Wu Li's parents divorced when he was young, and he was sentenced to his father. However, his father was both a drunkard and a gambler. So when Wu Li was young, he was basically no different from an orphan.

He has a strong and independent personality, so he doesn't feel bitter about it. It's just that he has no relationship with his father other than blood relationship. Instead, he survives with the help of some relatives and neighbors.

He had a hard time in the first few years. Later, as his talent in table tennis gradually revealed, he was first spotted by the teachers of the sports school, and then by the city team, and thus entered the national training mechanism of Huaguo table tennis. , I no longer have contact with that drunk mother, and other teammates have to go home for reunion every year and holiday, but he has nowhere to go, most of them stay in the team, and occasionally buy some gifts to go back to visit those neighbors who have helped him Neighbors, however, usually have nothing to say after a few pleasantries, choose to leave, quickly return to the team, and return to their familiar environment.

Wu Li originally thought that he and his father would never get in touch with each other, but last year when he wanted to go back to visit the neighbors during Chinese New Year, his father, whom he had not seen for many years, came to him and brought a piece of bad news. : My father has cancer, liver cancer.

Wu Li's first reaction was not to be sad, but to "serve it right". After all, isn't it natural for an alcoholic to get liver cancer?
But his father, whom he hadn't seen for many years, gave him another blow: Let Wu Li find a way to make money, help him treat his illness, he needs an operation, he still wants to live, he doesn't want to die.

"I don't care. You are my son. How can you be without me? You have to be responsible to me. You have a support obligation to me. If you don't give me the money, I will sue you in court and make a fuss in your team. You are ruined."

At that time, Wu Li was fairly calm, but the neighbors were so angry that their eyes were red. They told Wu Li angrily, don't worry about anything, let that man make trouble and file a complaint. He can't win.

But Wu Li finally chose to bear the man's surgery expenses, not because he was afraid of losing his reputation or anything, but because he felt that the man said at least one sentence was right: "How can you be without me?"

The man's only kindness to Wuli was to contribute a sperm.

Wu Li is willing to do his best to make money to help this man last his last life. It can be regarded as repaying the kindness of that man's cultivation. to go.

At first, Wang Chao introduced him to spade q. He wanted to play more games in the professional arena and get more bonuses, but later he found that this was far from enough, so Wang Chao returned to the spade q base for the first time in the middle of last year. At that time, he borrowed a huge sum of money from Wang Chao privately, a total of 100 million.

Only Wang Chao knows about this matter, and no one else in the spade q base knows. Even though Lao Fan's family is richer, the only person Wu Li trusts is Wang Chao. After all, it was Wang Chao who brought him into the professional table tennis world. Only Wang Chao can truly see his potential and help him turn it into strength.

"I don't know when I can pay you back the money, and I don't know how to repay you. After all, you seem to have everything." The unspoken words also came out: "I can only guarantee that from now on, I will do whatever you ask me to do, I swear to God."

He is a very pure person. When he said these words, the emotions in his heart were somewhat similar to those dead soldiers who were loyal to the king in ancient times.If there is no repayment, then repay with life.

Of course, Wang Chao didn't need his life, and he didn't even need him to pay back the money. Wang Chao patted him on the shoulder: "I borrowed money to charge interest, and you didn't pay it back..."

He paused, and said seriously: "Be my doubles partner. We will go all the way from the Ping Ping Super League to the world championship. At that time, every time you help me win the world championship, it is equivalent to paying me back 10 yuan." , After the ten world championships are finished, the debt between us will be settled."

Wu Li was only introverted, not stupid. Of course he could understand Wang Chao's kindness, and was even a little flattered. He asked, "Are you sure you want to choose me?"

Wang Chao nodded: "Of course."

"But..." Wu Li gritted his teeth, "I don't need sympathy."

"Who sympathized with you?" Wang Chao smiled, and then sighed: "You really don't know your own value..."

……

The past is still in sight, but things have changed. Even if Wuli spent millions of dollars on medical expenses, that man still couldn’t fight against advanced liver cancer. He left this world. The grievances between them can be regarded as completely over.

On the way back to the base, Wu Li didn't speak until he got out of the car, and he said the last sentence about this matter to Wang Chao: "He...before he died, he said sorry to me."

Wang Chao was stunned.

When a person is about to die, his words are also kind. Even though that man is domineering, unreasonable, messing around and hurting people a lot, in the deepest part of his heart, he still can distinguish between good and evil.

Probably it was the last apology that made Wu Li really break his guard, hurt his heart, and shed tears.

And when he actually entered the Huaping base, the mood of force had completely returned to normal.

He loves the base.

In other words, he likes all the table tennis bases, and all the places where he can play.

Because his originally gloomy life was completely lit up by table tennis.

It was the beginning of the year, and the New Zealand Open, the first match of the year, was still a week away, and the Spring Championships of the Table Tennis Super League had not yet started, so all the players from the national team were present, and there were 30 players from the first team and the second team .

Cai Guodong arranged an unprecedented special welcome ceremony for Wuli: the wheel challenge.

Starting from the bottom-ranked players in the second team's last team assessment, they challenged one by one until they reached the first-ranked player in the first team's main force.

Considering that there are too many games, the best-of-seven rounds system was reduced to the best-of-five rounds system.

But even so, there are more than 20 games to be played in one day.

When Cai Guodong finished announcing, all the players in the base gasped, because the schedule was too crazy, but after that, everyone became excited.

Some of them have played against Wuli in the Table Tennis Super League, but most of them have only heard of Wuli's name and watched some of Wuli's game videos. They know that this person is very special, but everyone wants to try his strength. try.

This is how Wu Li spent his first day in Huaping. He played for 41 hours from 08:30 in the morning to 12:27 in the evening. He played a total of 98 games and 17 rounds, winning 10 field, lost [-] games.

Even though he was an iron man, after the last match, he was so tired that he lay down on the floor, stretched all over his body, his posture was so ugly that he didn't even bother to move a finger.

But it was also this battle that allowed him to really gain a foothold in the national team full of masters and won the respect of other players.

Whether it is the toughness and endurance he displayed in continuous high-intensity combat, or the content of the game throughout the day, everyone present was amazed.

In fact, there are still many people in the national team who can do such things as playing games for 12 hours a day. After all, table tennis is not a sport with too much exercise, but like force, every game If you try your best to play, run all over the court to save the ball, and don't spare your physical strength, then no one else can do it.

What's more, the quality of Wuli's games is still very high. He doesn't just fight around and lose at will, but has been trying to find a way to win. From the first game to the 27th game, it can be said that the more he played, the better he played. It was a wonderful game, and in the last few rounds of the afternoon, some places even played the world's top level.

In fact, Cai Guodong's arrangement itself has deep meaning.

He asked Wuli to challenge from the last place in the second team. This is a process from easy to difficult. He just wanted to give Wuli enough time to adapt. The stronger the fight.

As it turns out, it is.

There are a total of 15 players in the second national team. Wuli won 15 games and lost 9 games in these 6 games.

The first national team has a total of 12 players, winning 6 games and losing 6 games by force.

From this data, it is not difficult to see how fast the force is improving on the spot.

The strength gap between the first national team and the second team is like a gap, but the overall winning percentage difference between the second team and the first team is not that big.

When playing for the second team, his strength was in the middle and upper reaches of the second team.

When playing for the first team, his strength was in the middle of the first team.

If you consider that he did show obvious exhaustion in the last four hours of the game, then his performance in the first team can actually be a little better.

Don't forget, among the 12 players in the first team, there are five main players among them. He won six games by force, which means that he is actually only one step away from the main team of Huaping.

Cai Guodong signaled the other team members to disperse first, but he stayed behind, intending to chat with Wu Li.

He asked Wang Chao to stay too.

Because in a sense, Wuli was completely discovered and cultivated by Wang Chao to the present level. It is no problem to say that Wang Chao is Wuli's agent.

The first is the head coach.

Cai Guodong actually thinks that Wang Chao is very suitable to be the head coach of martial arts, but Wang Chao is not a coach, but a player.

According to common sense, in this situation, it is likely that Wuli will follow Wang Chao's coach He Jingping, but the problem is that He Jingping is really too busy now.

He himself has two ace disciples, Wang Chao and Luo Jiu, and has a non-mainstream training partner named Zhu Ding who stalks him all the year round. At the same time, Qin Huachang was originally responsible for Qihao's technical transformation. After Qin Huachang left , This burden also fell on He Jingping's shoulders. Now that Qihao's technology is advancing by leaps and bounds, he is in a critical period of rejuvenation, and He Jingping has to devote a lot of energy.

In this case, if additional force is added, there is a high probability that Lao He will die from overwork.

"I plan to let him follow Brother Long." Wang Chao didn't hide anything: "I think it's most appropriate for Brother Long to take him."

Cai Guodong nodded.

He was very relieved, because it was obvious that although Wang Chao was not a hero like Sun Tianlong, he also understood the overall situation and did not force his force to stay in the rich family.

Lao Cai was really afraid that Wang Chao would force his force on Zhu Zeshi. After all, Zhu Zeshi didn't have any capable disciples under his command, and he was in a period of vacancy.

It's not that Lao Zhu's apprenticeship level is not high, but that Lao Zhu is more suitable for leading Xiao Fei's kind of players who are obedient and urgently need to discover their specialties, rather than Wuli, who urgently need all-round and balanced development, and not like Lu Feiyang. A stabbing player who needs ideological education.

For example, Lin Zijun is very suitable to follow Zhu Zeshi, because Lin Zijun has been pregnant with Baoshan without knowing it. He obviously has super speed that is unparalleled in the world, but he has only comprehended a little bit of extremely superficial offensive and defensive methods. Under the Zhu family, even if Lao Zhu couldn't come up with the top three tricks of the weapon spectrum such as "big python turning over", it was still easy to come up with three, four, five or six moves that could rank in the top ten of the weapon spectrum.

It can be deduced from this that Pique, who has a special backhand ability, and Morad, who uses a special octagonal racket, are actually very suitable for Lao Zhu, but it is a pity that they are both abroad.

As for the good seedlings that have emerged in China, Fan Xiaodong is actually considered a player with special strengths, but Lao Qin Jie took the lead.

Therefore, the real contribution that Lao Zhu has made in the past two years is to accompany He Jingping to help Luo Jiu perfect his backhand bounce technique. It is bigger. As for He Jingping's contribution, he mainly focuses on the modification of the rhythm of forehand and backhand transition and the overall tactical system.

However, this part of Lao Zhu's contribution is unknown, because Luo Jiu is He Jingping's disciple, and although He Jingping disdains picking other people's peaches, he has no psychological burden on picking his senior brother's peaches. After all, everyone is on good terms.

Solved the coaching problem, next is the competition problem.

"My opinion is that as long as you are eligible to participate, you should sign up unconditionally." It was still Wang Chao who answered in charge: "What he needs is not only high-intensity exercise, but also high-intensity competitions."

Having said that, Wang Chao paused for a moment: "Head coach, I will apply to you. Wu Li and I plan to form a team to participate in the men's doubles."
